I made a long video about the "someone's got to do it" memes, where they came from, what they're really saying, and what these posts reveal about collective trauma, political cynicism, our decaying faith in democratic institutions and so so much more. www.youtube.com/watch?v=zXrj...

“That is why Trumpists are so focused on “ending DEI” in the federal workforce. They see anti-discrimination and inclusion as a ladder of upward mobility for people they do not believe should have one.”
The Great Resegregation
The Trump administration’s attacks on DEI are aimed at reversing the civil-rights movement.

They just keep finding their way back to prison… funny.
New on MSNBC: Enrique Tarrio, the ex-Proud Boys leader granted clemency by Trump last month, has been arrested outside the U.S. Capitol and charged with allegedly assaulting a female protester.

We have been careful to avoid using the word coup, but it’s time to call it what it is—this is a coup. Trump signed an executive order granting only the attorney general or the president the authority to interpret laws executed by the executive branch.

Hey #Democratic Party, read the room and stop asking for money. How about you do something and then we can even remotely talk about monetary support. #readtheroom

I'm sorry, but "they took over the whole federal payments system, fired the career staff, and won't let anybody see what they're doing" is not a situation in which you wait for more information. It's a situation in which you assume the worst. There's no explanation for it other than rampant crimes.

NEW: I heard from federal employees across various agencies about the internal chaos they're experiencing because of Trump and how they feel going forward in their jobs.
A clear theme? They are scared - and also pissed off and hunkering down to fight.

No one's blaming Democrats for causing this crisis, but yes, many of them are failing to meet this moment.
One Democratic senator could bring the chamber to a halt. House Dems can go to fed agencies being gutted by Musk with cameras in tow. Governors can push back. State AGs can bring lawsuits.

That place is just dark and horrid and needs to be gone.
Obama should have shut down Gitmo.
I know he was not the only one at fault: nonetheless, Gitmo should have been decommissioned and emptied back then, when we knew what it was and had the chance.
It was evil to leave it in place.

Dear Congress,
There's this thing I think you need to refresh your memory of. Don't worry, it's short, so it won't take you much time, but I advise that you read it enough times that it's really internalized.
It's Article I of the Constitution.
